I have had a go at this vlc thing using my 4.12 box I am using a slackware 13 package VLC 1.06 it is work in progress as it has missing libs come up however it plays mp4's and avi's and mp3 I have not tried streaming with it so anyway here is the link. I'll keep working on it, feel free to take and improve.

Doesn't play flv at the moment. Anway it is a start.

Hint by the way I use slackware deps and rename them to get the libs I need example slackware lib may be libgpm.so.2.0.4 can rename to libgpm.so.2 - sometimes works not always anyway have a play with it should work in 4.32 as it does in 4.12

Thanks Daz (darry1966)! Downloaded just now but can't experiment for a few days yet. Cheers _________________Toowoomba Linux Community

Where can I download 4.3.2V3?
First link gives me a blue page, second link an error message, and when I downloaded from some other location I got a bad vmlinuz - can I use vmlinuz from puppy 4.3.1 non-retro instead? (2.6.30).

sindi, I have that Pup archived on a laptop of mine -- but that laptop is in the shop for graphics chip repair until late tomorrow (Monday) evening. Please PM me Tuesday, and I'll find a way to get it to you... but I won't have access to it until then._________________

New link works ( but not with wget)

Wget complains of a self-signed certificate, but the download works with Opera or lynx.
The Puppy 4.3.2 Wikka has only the two out of date links to the V3 iso - can someone please update it?

Looking forward to this version. I also have KLP linux, an updated 4.3.1.

Puppy 4 versions will boot with loadlin, or with lilo. Puppy 5 won't boot with loadlin, or even wtih lilo if the sfs file is not in the first 8GB (can't find sfs file). Wary booted from hda1 FAT32 runs very slowly for some reason.

Thanks Smokey01 and Starhawk.

Has anyone got GTK-Youtube Viewer working on 4.3.2?
Or Slimboat browser?

I did download from there originally and got a zero-length vmlinuz.
I compared the file sizes from that download with the more recent one -
the sfs file and initrd.gz were different sizes. (The isolinux
stuff was all the same sizes). Maybe I just somehow got a bad download.
The first time I tried to download it got stuck and I had to try again.

I deleted the earlier iso file (which I had extracted files from using
mount -o loop not a CD) and will boot with lilo.

The Wikka still lists the two older sites which no longer have the iso
at all. Could someone replace them with a good link or links?

I need to search on puppy 432 to find the discussion - 4.3.2 does not
find it (with a search engine - much faster than using the forum
search).

I did download from archive.org originally and got a zero-length vmlinuz.
First time I tried to download from there it stalled and I had to start
over. My second download may also have been bad.

I compared the file sizes from that download with the more recent "plus"
one - the sfs file and initrd.gz were different sizes. (The isolinux
stuff was all the same sizes).

The Wikka still lists the two older links, which no longer have the iso
at all. Could someone replace them with a good link or links, and if
this 'plus' version is newer and official, add it to archive.org?
